You know, I, Heather and I have an ongoing discussion where she'll say, I don't see how people could possibly believe X. And then she will give some example where people have said something that couldn't possibly be right. And I will say to her,

You know, it's one of those times when you have to realize that what you mean by I believe X does not bear any resemblance to what most people mean when they believe something. And I do think this is another argument, actually, in favor of a... An all-encompassing tolerance of discussion, right?

You have to be able to discuss all things in part because what you really want to discover is how wide a range of opinion and perspective there actually is. And if you start demonizing people as soon as they depart from your consensus, you get the sense that we all see it alike because you can't see the people who don't.

Well, my view is that there are many different ways that AI can radically disrupt civilization. And some of them are utterly guaranteed, others we're speculating on. I think one of the lessons from the mind of a biologist who's focused on complex systems is that the technologists think they understand more about the way AR works than they do, and certainly than they will.

So, you know, I hear many confident pronouncements that it isn't conscious and it won't be conscious because we didn't program that capacity.

Well, I will put it the other way from the biological perspective. We have a lot of evidence that a human child is basically an LLM. It's more than that. It has other capacities.

But when you think about what it is that allows a human child to go from being unable to utter a single word to fluent sentences and nuanced, complex arguments, it basically is ingesting language from its environment, experimenting, seeing what causes a reward. It's an LLM. You can argue that it's not conscious. Large language model. Yeah.
